Big Chief Walking Eagle (*)

Walking Eagle

President Bush was invited to address a major gathering of the representatives of various American Indian Nations last weekend in Arizona. He spoke for almost an hour on his future plans for increasing every Native American's present standard of living. He referred to his career as Governor of Texas, how he had signed "YES" 1,237 times - for every Indian issue that came to his desk for approval.

Although the President was vague on the details of his plan, he seemed most enthusiastic about his future ideas for helping his "red brothers".

At the conclusion of his speech, the Tribes presented the President with a plaque inscribed with his new Indian name - Walking Eagle. The proud President then departed in his motorcade, waving to the crowds.

A news reporter later inquired to the group of chiefs of how they came to the decision to select the new name given to the President.

They explained that "Walking Eagle" is the name given to a bird so full of shit it can no longer fly.

4. I've heard that one but I think it may be an urban legend.

There is one version that referred to Kerry.

Walking Eagle is a good description of Bush given his outstanding performance in the Texas Air National Guard. Maybe that is why he was grounded and got his wings clipped.

8. That's a variation on a Charlie Hill joke

I heard first hand at the First Americans in the Arts awards in 2002. www.firstamericans.org . Charlie is a Native American comic, damned funny one too!

Charlie's original was simple; 'ya know, we Indians have a name for George W. Bush; we call him "Walking Eagle", 'cause he's so full of shit he can't fly!"

Got at standing ovation and several dozen war whoops, lol! ;-)
